Milestones<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Stone posts stuck in the ground<\/p>\n
mark life’s fleeting journey.<\/p>\n
From birth to death we are<\/p>\n
reminded of our odyssey.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes viewed ahead,<\/p>\n
sometimes seen behind.<\/p>\n
Some people have many stone,<\/p>\n
others have very few.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
These small stones tell the tales<\/p>\n
of our triumphs and tragedies<\/p>\n
from toe- stubbers to monumental<\/p>\n
boulders that weigh on our shoulders.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some are smooth with<\/p>\n
ease, contentment and joy<\/p>\n
Others are crevassed and cracked<\/p>\n
with guilt, shame and travail.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A new stone is etched<\/p>\n
at birth with our first cry.<\/p>\n
With our final breath an<\/p>\n
old stone marks our death.<\/p>\n
